Too Good to Waste


Paper was a precious commodity in the eighteenth century: every sheet was made by hand. There was therefore a significant market in recycling substandard paper from paper mills and discarded proofs and sheets from printers and booksellers for secondary use, alongside a black market in which stealing and receiving stolen paper took place on a vast scale. A single piece of paper could be termed ‘waste’ and yet sold for cash three times in succession, on each occasion performing a useful function. The end user would keep the newly purchased ‘waste’ or paper wrapping in a special drawer from which it would be taken for a myriad household purposes, including cooking, needlework, decoration and hygiene. Popular satirical prints depicted explicit paper uses, while creators of flamboyant papier mâché ceilings concealed the material by gilding it. With 90 illustrations, and drawing on letters from a range of people from farmers to notable authors and members of the aristocracy, together with meticulous archival research, this book traces the extraordinary history of ingenious paper recycling in eighteenth-century England.

Mindfulness-Based Somatic Emotional Processing


A guide for working with emotions and unprocessed traumas• Explains the simple yet transformative protocols and techniques of Mindfulness-Based Somatic Emotional Processing (MBSEP)• Describes how to work with specific emotional states, such as anxiety, grief and anger, and how to integrate MBSEP with other healing modalities• Demonstrates concepts and practices in detail through dozens of case studies from the authors’ decades of therapy practiceDeveloped by Robert Weisz, PhD, the practice of Mindfulness-Based Somatic Emotional Processing (MBSEP) combines mindfulness and somatic perception to help regulate emotions and process traumas that are stored in the body. The authors demonstrate these concepts and methods through decades of case studies and practical, accessible, step-by-step exercises. Humans are emotional beings who feel and experience emotions in their bodies. Weisz and Blackwood explore the contrast between somatic, body-based emotions and the mental, cognitively-based stories, explanations, and judgments of the thinking mind. The authors describe the “struggle factor” and why it is futile to resist having negative emotions. They demonstrate how to be mindfully present with emotional states like anxiety, anger, and grief, and they detail the healing influence of compassionate attention. Their methods foster neuroplasticity to create and expand neuronal linkages in the brain and nervous system. By encouraging acceptance, compassion, and the experiential truth of our embodied emotions, Weisz and Blackwood have created a practical and flexible protocol for processing and regulating emotions. They also show how MBSEP is easily integrated with other healing modalities, making it a valuable resource for home practitioners and therapists alike.

Pufflings Fly Free!


From Sibert Honoree Colleen Paeff comes a quietly powerful picture book about one young girl’s courageous mission to save a baby puffin, or puffling, with the support of her community on the Icelandic Westman Islands, exploring themes of environmental conservation, animals, family traditions, and girls in science. While most of the world sleeps, Freya and her family embark on a late-night rescue mission like no other. On Iceland’s Westman Islands, families gather at midnight to save lost baby puffins, or pufflings, guiding them safely back to the sea. Freya has always dreamed of rescuing a puffling on her own, just like her older siblings. But every time she tries, the tiny birds slip through her fingers—beaks nip, claws scratch, and they escape. When one puffling tumbles into the deep clamshell bucket of an excavator, out of reach from everyone else, Freya is faced with a choice. With her family ready to head home, she must find the courage to climb in and save the little bird—all by herself. This fictional story is based on the Puffling Patrol, a real rescue that takes place every year on the Westman Islands of Iceland. Both the author and illustrator joined the Puffling Patrol and rescued birds themselves.

Don't Brake My Heart


Love is a long game…Down-and-out after retiring from cycling to ‘get a real job’, Leesa Kubicka just wants to forget about her years on the elite team, the races she mostly lost. Just her luck, her first real assignment at the sports marketing agency where she’s building a career takes her right back to everything she wanted to leave behind: cycling, the Tour de France and Colin Gallagher, the immature joker who’d enjoyed riling her up with stupid pranks – the guy she’d nearly kissed back in September. Much to her mortification, her job is now to make content with him before and during the Tour de France. His pranks and flirting – and distractingly deep voice – don’t make her job any easier, but she’s determined to impress her boss and earn the contract extension her bank account desperately needs. Leesa has always been Colin’s Achilles heel: beautiful, funny and completely immune to his rough charm. But now she’s here to witness the moment that will make or break his young career and all he wants to do is act out with her. It’s his last chance to prove he’s not just the idiot she thinks he is before she’s gone from his life forever. It’s time for Colin Gallagher to finally grow up and prove he’s worth the support of his team and sponsors – and maybe even Leesa’s heart.
